Much like climbing, buildering is plagued with such user-unfriendly problems as access issues. While some have the vision, most, namely governments and property owners, do not share the sentiment that climbing buildings is a "fun, creative outlet for rock-deprived climbers." As a result, many urban lines must be well hidden. Visit High Exposures for more.

What is it about climbing that makes it so enjoyable anyway? Is it the process of problem solving through steep and unlikely, though often enlightening, terrain? Maybe it's just the simple pleasure of getting together with friends and enjoying something so meaningless, yet so fun. And fun, as we all know, is the fountain of youth.

Those not blessed with the presence of rocks nearby have taken to the streets in search of human creations upon which to feed their hunger. Skyscrapers, freeway overpasses, and municipal buildings all lead second lives as virtual El Caps, Columbia Boulders, and Endless Walls for those with the vision.

Climbing is where you find it (or make it). Some people have marvelous crags a mere stone's throw away from their homes, while others - well, they may have to work a bit harder.
